Extensive Tattoos: Hot or Not?

Do large tattoos affect how attractive people are in your eyes?

I mean large as in a whole leg, whole arm, or the whole back covered in tats.

Nope. I can become highly attracted to someone with tattoos covering their entire body with body piercing/horns and also become highly attracted to someone with no tattoos. Hygiene is the only thing in the "looks" department that I might care about and would be turned off. Because smell is a powerful sense for me.

Though only physical attraction thing that can turn me off is if someone looks ill and extremely or excessively thin. I don't mind overweight males but extreme intentional thinness drives me batty. I don't mind thin males, as long as it's their natural look and not done on purpose. If we go out and you've got a fast metabolism and can scarf everything down, I will have no problem with how tiny you are. But if we go out and you stare at your dinner not eating (and you do it ALL the time)... I don't know it just sets off something in me that's not attracted to them. I'm a foodie and I may not like a lot of people around me but when I travel my partner needs to enjoy food as much as I do.

I think they are beautiful but spiritually they make me question things. If they have the will power to take something beautiful and own it by putting it on their body then I wonder if they appreciate the beauty I'm seeing because their perspective is of ownership while mine is of wonder.

Humm I just thought of something. I might question dating them if they've marked themselves with like a hate symbol or like a turd on their forehead. I guess I'm always interested in why they got the tattoo. Curious more often but if it's a blatant hate symbol I might avoid like the plague or highly deter me. It depends on an upside-down star, a pentagram question on why, and the history of choice. Pagan or Wiccan stuff np. A stabbed horse might have me raise an eyebrow. Naked girls wonder about that. But the ones that would do a full stop, and never talk to them would be Nazis. The turd or something really ugly, question their sanity and intelligence. So I guess it determines what tattoos they have on them but normally I don't care and like asking why and what made them think of that specific piece to put on their skin.

Hot

But I say that cautiously. I do not have a tattoo fetish. Nor am I likely to fall for or be drawn to someone just because they do have that. I'd be just as attracted to the right person if they did not have that.

But yeah if I was already drawn to the person, I'd find it very hot.

I am sorta used to that in exposure. My dad was covered in Tats back when it still was not mainstream for most people to be. He used to have tattoo parties etc. My older sis (by 7 yrs.) also had alotta tat parties. My older sis has limbs covered. She pulls it off very well.

Despite having access to various tat artists when I was younger, who'd have done many things for free or cheap, I'd never liked their style. I did not get my first tat until I was 32.

I am pretty sure the tat artist for the first few I got was NFP or ISFP. She kept grilling me about visual artistry and meaning, questioning me because I basically just was boring and basic. I had a few words, or impressions on the back of my thighs/feet. She kept going on and on about how a tat should be visual story. I was like not in my case. In my case it should be a statement with zero hidden meaning, lol. She was annoying as fuck I did not care for my tat artist lecturing me for not wanting a fucking story on my body. Anyways I'd still probably even find that possibly hot on someone else.

I get told by alotta people I should be one of those people covered. Including my kids, friends, etc. Strangely and oddly even my mother, who usually is not huge on tats. I have had exes say they were expecting more tats . I think it may be because I have pale skin and dark hair/eyes, and I have a dermal on my upper cheek, and lip piercing.

Aside from one on my wrist my tats are not visible outside of at a beach or in summer clothing. I have always been mindful though of the field I worked in and jobs. However human services has changed quite a bit the last decade. I used to have to take my lip piercing out, and unscrew the dermal or put a bandaid on it. Nowadays most appearance policies have been cancelled. And my resume is built enough that does not matter as much.

So I'd be more willing to have more exposed. I can see why many people say I would look good with it. I have never had a strong drive or goal to get covered, mainly because of money mentioned. Like I just think being a working class mom it'd have been selfish to not put money towards things like my kids bedrooms, activities, or clothing etc. Nowadays it is different my kids basically have most 'things' So maybe I'd do it. If I do it, it is likely to do it on vacation as a memory. Probably Vegas (cheap), that is where I got my last tat.
